Blurb

What would you do if in this world there was a Magic Spell able to make the one you love love you in return? And what would you do if,suddenly, what began as a joke, a mere expression of a hidden desire,awoke a dangerous and cruel creature determined to make you bend to his will?

Mariane is a simple and introverted Human girl.

Gabriel is a powerful Deiwos used to always get what he wants.

And how can these two different existences, originated from such different worlds, ever hope to learn to live together, communicate and, who knows, even understand each other ...?

Part 7 - Outwitting the Fox
Kai took a deep breath and entered the room, to immediately stop by the door.
Kahor smiled up at him, her face flushed, her dark eyes glistening anxiously, but the Knight’s gaze was rapidly directed to the other girl.
All dressed in rich dark-green velvet dress, her honey-colored hair pulled up and adorned with bright green jewels as it was fashionable among the Ladies of the Court, Selina smiled at him and lightly bowed her head in a greeting.
“And then? Tell me! Did she make it?” Kahor asked, unable to stand the suspense any longer, and he looked from one girl to the other, trying to make sense of what was going on.
“I was just telling Kahor how you volunteered to help my Mistress,” Selina explained in her most delicate, feminine tone, and Kai frowned deeply displeased.
“Come now! Tell me!” Kahor... read more ❯

Epilogue
I stare at the point of my pen that, without my consent, stopped writing. Drops fall on the paper, smudging and deforming the small dark letters imprinted on it, the same letters I just wrote on that once white surface. Perplexed, I take a hand to my face and find it wet, and I almost smile at the tears that blur my vision, certain of how rare they are, to the point I’d even forgotten I was able to cry at all.
Am I alive ... or am I dead?
Maybe my life ended when I fell on that cold, stone floor; the fog that paved my path belonging to a shadowy world inhabited only by lost spirits. And yet, the warm tears that my eyes insist to shed seem to challenge that theory. After all, in my limited Human belief, death should be unfeeling and cold.
Somewhere from deep inside my mind,... read more ❯

Part 2
It took me sometime until I was able to move. My freezing body wouldn’t stop shaking and I was sure that moving would be very painful. Even so I got up, wincing and swallowing my cries of pain, and took off my wet sweater that fell heavily on the floor. My skin was even colder than Gabriel’s, the drops falling from my wet hair and sliding down my back an absolute torture.
The sound of something heavy falling on the floor startled me, leaving me immediately alert as my gaze flew to the half-closed door. For a moment I could hardly breathe, but then the sound of footsteps on the stairs made me sigh in relief,... read more ❯

Part 1
The blast that echoed around me, followed by the shrieking sound of something breaking, sent me at high speed through an incandescent and bright tunnel.
The sudden braking, just a few seconds later left me lost and breathless, and the darkness around me blinded me again. For a moment I was completely deaf, the blast still echoing in my ears, but as the memory of that explosion started to fade, other sounds became progressively clearer.
I tried to focus my eyes, demanding that they’d get used to the sudden lack of light, and I almost screamed when I was suddenly aware that I was floating midair, very much above anything that could be called ground. For a... read more ❯
